here's cnn's ed lavandera. >> reporter: it's a script that would make a hollywood writer jealous. cycling athlete gets cancer, nearly dies, but comes back to one the world's most famous race, not once, not twice, but a record breaking seven straight times. by the way, he also starts a cancer foundation which has raised $470 million and has provided inspiration to millions around the world. but a dark cloud hovering over this story never blew past. suspicions that grew into allegations that lance armstrong used performance enhancing drugs to accomplish his incredible feats. the suspicions were confirmed in october when the united states anti-doping agency released thousands of pages of evidence of what it said was a sophisticated doping program. armstrong was stripped of his tour de france titles and banned from all olympic sports for life. onby one, his sponsors have left him too. late last year, armstrong was forced out from live strong, the cancer charity he founded. armstrong has kept a low profile at his austin home since the report was released, but a armstro armstrong's repe

thanks, ed lavandera. >>> getting a flu shot was a popular activity this weekend. if you can find a flu shot. health officials insist there's no shortage. but demand has never been higher. cnn's mary snow joins me now with more. >> reporter: joe, this is just one small slice of the country, but new york is particularly seeing a surge in demand for vaccines because the governor issued a public health emergency for the state on saturday. now that order gives pharmacies more latitude in being able to administer shots. but it also means some pharmacies are now running short on supply. this pharmacy in brooklyn has a sign telling people they give flu shots. inside, the best pharmacist could do was put people like david o'keefe on a waiting list. >> hopefully, we'll have flu shots for you tomorrow. i have 80 shots coming in. your number will be 76. >> reporter: the pharmacist ran out of vaccine on sunday after new york's governor declared a public health emergency over the weekend. the declaration gives farm sivts the ability to give children flu shots. in new york, they
